Front Line Assembly

In 1985 & 1986, Bill Leeb supported Skinny Puppy under the pseudonym Wilhelm Schroeder. As an early friend of the band he contributed bass synth and backing vocals for several tracks while also supporting their 1985 tour.

Upon the formation of Front Line Assembly, Leeb produced the Nerve War demo tape which was distributed on a very limited basis. Around this time, Leeb and Rhys Fulber became friends when they discovered they both had a similar interest in underground music. As an unofficial member at this time, Fulber partnered with Leeb during the production of Total Terror and was credited for the song “Black Fluid” on the demo.

In 2006 the band submitted tracks from their Artificial Soldier to the soundtrack for the horror film FrightWorld, slated for a 2007 release.

Out in April 2007 via Metropolis was the Frontline Assembly remix album Fallout. The album was released in a 4-panel digipak and featured three brand new tracks (“Electric Dreams”, “Unconscious” and “Armageddon”) and nine remixes by (among others) Combichrist, Covenant, Portion Control, Sebastian R. Komor (Zombie Girl/Icon of Coil), Rhys Fulber and more. The band went out to tour North America and Europe again in 2007.
